Grimm Tale
Grimm Tale of Love Lost: A Heart's Battle Against Betrayal
Lyrics
Once upon a time I was so in love with you
Expressing past love and attachment to someone
I used to love staring in your eyes forever
Deep affection and a desire for eternal connection
But then you changed and you ruined my life
Feeling that the person changed negatively and affected the speaker's life
Makes me sick just looking at you venomous face
Feeling repulsion and disgust towards the changed person
So I cut you the hell outta my life
Acting decisively to remove the person from the speaker's life
Or at least I tried but every now and then
Struggling to completely remove the person from thoughts and experiences
You still appear to make my day worse
Feeling that the person still negatively impacts the speaker's life
And remind my heart of it's aching pain
Continued emotional pain caused by memories of the past relationship
Happy ever after never came for us
Realization that a happy ending wasn't achieved in the relationship
We were a grimm tale but not a fairy tale
Comparing their story to a dark tale, not a fairy tale
When did the eyes of an angel change
Questioning the change in the person from good to harmful
And become the eyes of a snake
Metaphorically comparing the person's eyes to that of a deceptive snake
So I cut you the hell outta my life
Reiteration of removing the person from the speaker's life
Or at least I tried but every now and then
Struggling with persistent thoughts or appearances of the person
You still appear to make my day worse
Continued negative impact of the person on the speaker's life
And remind my heart of it's aching pain
Recurring emotional pain due to memories of the past relationship
Either I'm not Prince Charming
Comparing oneself and the person to various fairy tale characters, questioning the suitability of their roles
Or you're not Cinderella
-Either I'm not Flynn Rider
-Or you're not Rapunzel
-Either I'm not Price Eric
-Or you're not Ariel
-Either I'm not the Beast
-Or you're not Belle
-So I cut you the hell outta my life
Effort to sever ties completely with the person
Did the only thing I could
Doing what was possible to move on from the relationship
Or at least I tried but every now and then
Struggling to completely detach from the person
I can't get away from you
Difficulty in escaping thoughts or encounters with the person
You still appear to make my day worse
Continued negative impact of the person on the speaker's life
How can I escape this pain
Desire to escape the emotional pain caused by the past relationship
And remind my heart of it's aching pain
Continued emotional pain due to memories of the past relationship
Just when I had moved on
Feeling of having moved on from the past
So I cut you the hell outta my life
Effort to detach from the person once again
Did the only thing I could
Doing what was possible to move on from the relationship once more
Or at least I tried but every now and then
Struggling to completely detach from the person again
I can't get away from you
Difficulty in escaping thoughts or encounters with the person again
You still appear to make my day worse
Continued negative impact of the person on the speaker's life once more
How can I escape this pain
Desire to escape the emotional pain caused by the past relationship once more
And remind my heart of it's aching pain
Continued emotional pain due to memories of the past relationship once more
Just when I had moved on
Feeling setback in the process of moving on
